(...) I'm right there with you, Tom. A good friend of mine is a vegetarian because of the whole cruelty-to-animals thing. Every once in a while I ask him why he wears leather. He never has come up with any kind of sensible response. OTOH, I don't (...) (24 years ago, 20-Jul-00, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

You allude further down to being close (at least) to buying in to the idea that you're rationallizing somewhere. Mightn't you change your mind? If not, why not? (...)
